// OVERLAID FOR STREAMERS
Live coding and software streams move fast and chat is always a few seconds behind. Circle it, show the shortcut, and give your cursor a trail that survives stream compression.
// SOUND FAMILIAR?
“chat: WHICH LINE”
“chat: what did you press”
“chat: can't see your mouse at all”
// HOW IT PLAYS OUT
01SCENARIO
Chat will always ask what you pressed. Put the answer on screen before they do. Combos show up as keycaps, positioned wherever your layout has room.
HOW
02SCENARIO
Stream compression eats a thin macOS arrow for breakfast. A trail or halo gives your pointer enough weight to survive the trip to your viewers.
HOW
03SCENARIO
A two-hour stream is a lot of circles. Fading ink clears each one by itself, so your screen doesn't turn into a mess halfway through.
HOW
// RECOMMENDED SETUP
// WORKS OVER
Overlaid draws on your screen, not inside an app, so anything you can see, you can draw on.
Share your entire screen, not a single window.
Your drawings live in their own transparent layer on top of everything. A single-window share only sends that one window, so viewers won't see your marks. Share the whole screen and they will.
// FAQ
Yes, with a Display Capture source. Window Capture only grabs one app's window, so the overlay on top of it won't be in the stream.
The keystroke overlay never shows secure input like password fields. It also defaults to combos only, so ordinary typing isn't shown either.
No plugin needed. Every Overlaid action is a plain keyboard shortcut, so you can bind any of them to a Stream Deck key with its built-in hotkey action.
